Superb two-headed wrought iron frame. Beautiful blown glass tulips, two-tone pink and white engraved Schneider. Excellent condition, restored. The frame features fine ironwork with a carefully restored patina: stripping, anti-corrosion treatment, then re-patination in the old style to preserve the authenticity of the metal. This rare piece has benefited from entirely new electrification, guaranteeing both authenticity and security. Dimensions: Height: 50 cm Width: 40 cm Depth: 18 cm A Little History: La Verrerie Schneider – French Art Deco Excellence Founded in 1913 by the brothers Charles and Ernest Schneider, Verrerie Schneider quickly established itself as one of the great names in art glass from the late Art Nouveau and emerging Art Deco periods. Through its two iconic lines—Schneider, for prestige pieces, and Le Verre Français (often signed Charder) for a wider distribution—the house has successfully combined technical innovation, flamboyant colors, and formal elegance. Each creation demonstrates exceptional craftsmanship: layered glass, acid-etched engraving, stylized decoration inspired by nature or geometric patterns. The most sought-after works include vases, bowls, jewelry, lamps, and wall lights, true icons of 1920s decorative art. Today, Schneider pieces still attract collectors and aesthetes worldwide with their rarity, refinement, and expressive power.
